Re: Actually...

In Response To: Re: Actually... (General Vagueness)

: Even if it hadn't been a character you knew at all, did that visual seriously
: not... IDK... do anything?

The visual itself did because I was absolutely not expecting that. It was pretty crazy and shocking watching people just get blasted into dust when I guess I was more expecting the Didact to just explode the station. But on a personal level for the character? No.

: they, who?

343 Industries. It's like they want to try to make it seem like humanity is threatened, but they're not really all that concerned about making humanity be threatened or actually getting messed up because, at least as far as H4 goes, 343 has had no problem throwing away tons of lives on Infinity and not letting us feel any real impact to what the Didact has done. They need to show us the tragedy, the consequences, and the danger. Instead they're pretty much trying to tell us we need to be worried or that something big and scary and important is happening. Poor exposition and writing.

: I'll agree it doesn't measure up to the Flood in the first game, but then
: very little in video games or other media does.

Full circle to my original reply subject then in comparing H1 to H4:

Nope. Not one bit. Not even close.

: IDK if it was intentional, but what they said a while back implied to me they
: wanted to (re-)introduce her to people before Spartan Ops.

They could have done a way better job of it. I still say she and the Dinos are the best part of Spartan Ops, and the pathetic intro in campaign had no effect on that.
